The Innova Brewery brewing installation holds three brewing kettles of each 200 liters (55 US liquid gallons). The setup is based on the HERMS (Heat Exchanged Recirculating Mash System) principle and guarantees an extremely precise and fast temperature control in the mash kettle. This is crucial if you're going for a technically correct brewing process. In addition, recirculation over the grain bed enables an unrivaled efficiency (extraction of enzymes and starch from the malt) of the installation. One of the kettles thus serves as the hot-water tank (determining the temperature), whereas the second (mash tank) holds the grain bed over which the sweet wort is recirculated. The third kettle is the boiling tank and is equipped with a hop filter.

Heating of the tanks is obtained by gas burners (naked flame, still regarded as the best method) which enables a fast and controllable heating process. Furthermore, the brewery has a heat-exchange plate cooler and four large temperature-controled fermentation chambers that guarantee an optimal fermentation of the beer. Bottling is done via our in-house system after which the bottles are conditioned in the warm chamber, followed by a final cooling step.

You would like to brew your own beer on a larger scale? You're throwing a big party soon, or you're retiring and would like to serve your 'own' beer at the party or present it as a gift to the attendants? As a scouts or youth organisation you're seeking to serve 'your' beer at the annual festival? Whatever the reason may be, brewing the beer of your choice at a larger volume will be possible via Innova Brewery...

We're putting our brewing installation available to 'outsiders' and interested people who would like to brew (or let us brew) their beer on a scale of approx. 150 liters (40 US liquid gallons). This can be done using your own recipe or according to one of Innova Brewery, and of course eveything will be supervised and elaborately explained by us. Brewing, fermenting, lagering and botteling are all carried out at our site. Contact Innova Brewery for more information, discussing all possibilities and setting a date. See you soon!
